The thunderbay_add_functions() will free memory of thunderbay_funcs
when everything is ok, but thunderbay_funcs will not be freed when
thunderbay_add_functions() fails, then there will be a memory leak,
so add kfree() when thunderbay_add_functions() fails to fix it.

Sorry, I probably wasn't precise enough.

This patch still leaves *existing* kfree(funcs); in the
thunderbay_add_functions(). Maybe you can get rid of that one and just
handle freeing in the thunderbay_build_functions()?
